Love on a Limb (2016) Hallmark TV Film Review
Working hard to protect or help a cause she believes in is normal for Aimie Roarke (Ashley Williams). She isn’t afraid of a good challenge either. Her latest cause comes along with the centerpiece of town, the large ok tree is under threat of being cut down. This brings her up against the man, Kyle Sorenson (Trevor Donovan), hired to cut the tree down and relandscape the area.
Aimie attaches herself to the tree and makes ready to outwait Kyle and the Mayor (Jefferson Brown), but a challenge she doesn’t anticipate is the friendship she forms with Kyle.
TV FILM REVIEW | ‘LOVE ON THE AIR’: A CHARMING HALLMARK COMEDY
‘LOVE ON A LIMB’: ASHLEY WILLIAMS PLAYS DETERMINED HEROINE IN ROMCOM. Review of the 2016 #romcom title from #Hallmark! #AshleyWilliams Share on XAn older title from the network, Love on a Limb made its mark there during a Fall Harvest campaign, which fits because of the saving-a-tree-theme (and we think of trees in the autumn because of foliage), but the film doesn’t really look autumn-esque. Regardless of this, the same “repeat” things we always say (which is that these are cute) will also apply to this title. Also, if you like movie trivia and didn’t know, Williams husband Neal Dodson, also EP’d this film and it’s not the only title with his wife as lead where he serves in that role.
Outside of Donovan and Williams, the cast also has Marilu Henner, a woman who has played many a character on this network, even if it isn’t a leading role. They’re all fun in their respective roles but I will admit they aren’t all favorite actors of mine. The themes aren’t favorites of mine either. Not because I don’t believe the past has value or can, but rather because I’m not into the past becoming obsessive to the point of missing the present, which I feel this film does to a degree. Regardless, you may enjoy this one because of its themes, and if so, then I have no doubt you’ll find this one sweet.

THE TRAILER
Content: this one is very much the “normal” TV-G content rating. There is a kiss or two, but nothing that really deserves mention.
